Holy shit, the packing came out pretty easy, just took a warm shower and then pulled. A little bloody, but hey it’s surgery lol. I can honestly say that with the packing out I’m already feeling 10x better. ---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ---------- Before surgery… ![http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f44/Motocrossx23/41ba53d9.jpg](http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f44/Motocrossx23/41ba53d9.jpg) Today, after I removed the packing. I thought this picture was hilarious because I was quite obviously out of it from the lortabs. ![http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f44/Motocrossx23/369cac58.jpg](http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f44/Motocrossx23/369cac58.jpg) ---

Srsly do it, it’s only the day after and I can already tell that I’m gonna be able to breathe so much better. The first two days are rough, not gonna lie. The second I took the packing out it was much easier to breathe and swallow. My current situation is what to eat. I haven’t had anything but sherbert, freeze pops and scrambled eggs since I got home yesterday. I want something solid so bad lol. ---

So I took a very hot and steamy shower to loosen up all the crap up in my sinuses, I decided to have a glass of apple juice after… Let me make this clear…apple juice tastes amazing. I don’t think I’ve ever been able to smell/taste food like this, ever. It’s only day three of post surgery too. Holy fucking shit. I really can’t begin to explain to you what it’s like being able to experience something how you were supposed to be able to. Wow. ---

> [@maxwell](#): > > Are you ok with the cystic Fibrosis. I read up on that after you posted and it really scared me. I have blood work saturday morning and a sweat test on Tuesday. just trying not to think about it, it’s scary as fuck… especially since the symptoms explain the past 10-15 years of my life, of which there was no prior explanation. My old doctor sucked, i switched to a more reputable doctor after getting my new insurance, so now things are getting done that should have probably been done years and years ago. sucks. ---

Well, i’m rooting for you man. In many situations I am in a similar boat… crappy doctors, things i’ve been dealing with for years, and now it’s time to just do something about it. EDIT: I’ve got an appointment with Dr. Chmiel next week! ---

:tup: I fully recommend this surgery, I’m going in today to have my stents removed (apparently the worst feeling in the world lol) but after today it’s all down hill. I can already feel air enter my nose easier even tho I am still stuffed up. ---

So the stents were removed today, and everything was vacuumed out…all I can say is wow. Not wow cuz of the pain, but wow because of the car ride home. I have never been able to just inhale the deepest breathe of fresh air through my nose like I did today. It is almost depressing knowing that I’ve missed this for the last 10 years of my life. Get this surgery done, it seriously is the best thing I have EVER done for myself. ---
